Protective Effects of Gabapentin on Allodynia and α2δ1-Subunit of Voltage-dependent Calcium Channel in Spinal Nerve-Ligated Rats
This study was designed to determine whether early gabapentin treatment has a protective analgesic effect on neuropathic pain and compared its effect to the late treatment in a rat neuropathic model, and as the potential mechanism of protective action, the alpha(2)delta(1)-subunit of the voltage-dependent calcium channel (alpha(2)delta(1)-subunit) was evaluated in both sides of the L5 dorsal ro...
متن کاملAnalgesic treatment with pregabalin does not prevent persistent pain after peripheral nerve injury in the rat.
Reducing the risk of chronic postoperative pain through preventive analgesia is an attractive therapeutic concept. Because peripheral nerve lesions are a major cause of chronic pain after surgery, we tested in rats whether analgesic treatment with pregabalin (PGB) has the capacity to mitigate the development of persistent neuropathic pain-like behavior. Starting on the day of spared nerve injur...
متن کاملLysophosphatidic acid as the initiator of neuropathic pain.
The injury-induced intense stimulation of spinal cord neurons causes lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) biosynthesis. LPA(1) receptor activation causes demyelination and sprouting of dorsal root fibers, leading to an induction of synaptic reorganization underlying allodynia, in which innocuous (tactile) stimuli cause intense pain. The LPA(1) signal also initiates the up-regulation of Ca(v)α2δ1 in dors...
متن کاملبررسی دخالت رسپتورهای NMDA در اثر ضد دردی ویتامین C در یک مدل دردنوروپاتیک
Background and Aim: Ascorbate (ascorbic acid) is present in high concentration in the nervous system and is released as a result of activation of glutaminergic neurons. Due to high concentration of NMDA receptors in the nervous system, this study investigated the analgesic efficacy of ascorbic acid (AA) in neuropathic pain condition and the role of NMDA receptors in this effect.Materials an...
متن کاملEnhanced pre-synaptic glutamate release in deep-dorsal horn contributes to calcium channel alpha-2-delta-1 protein-mediated spinal sensitization and behavioral hypersensitivity
Nerve injury-induced expression of the spinal calcium channel alpha-2-delta-1 subunit (Cavalpha2delta1) has been shown to mediate behavioral hypersensitivity through a yet identified mechanism. We examined if this neuroplasticity modulates behavioral hypersensitivity by regulating spinal glutamatergic neurotransmission in injury-free transgenic mice overexpressing the Cavalpha2delta1 proteins i...
